It means I'm going to be a porn star.

Actually it's programming work, I am going to be the bridge between two systems, taking the output of one and making it connect with the input of another

I think I am more like the power strip behind an entertainment center. Everything plugs into me and depends on me to smoothly send them what they need. Just pretend electricity is replaced with data in the correct format.

That sounds hot, so like, if everything plugs into you, that means all of your electrical inputs get filled?

Where'd you find the job, TC? Through someone you know, or something like LinkedIn/Indeed. I'm looking for a programming job myself. I took this one job at the beginning of August, but the job description was pretty much a bait and switch and they had me doing menial tasks. Then they ran out of work for me and laid me off after a month, so that was fun.

Upwork actually. And that sucks about that bait and switch thing :\

The only downside to using upwork is that you'll have to probably get established on the site first which might mean doing a few crappy small time jobs for not much money in order to get some 5 star ratings in whatever key skills you have, e.g. java, php, mysql, etc.

Also you have a profile where you can advertise past work and stuff, I think that is a big part of what got me hired

Just buckle down and do the best you can. Get off CE and Reddit and take this serious.

Alright well that was a fun day. One of the other programmers basically said there was no way we could do what they wanted within the amount of time because the only way to do it is to replace a huge part of the system. So no one actually expected us to save the presentation, which is being given in another country by a traveling guy.

So I spent most of the day learning NodeJS and socket.io, which is funny because I think the only reason I was hired was because they were in a huge rush and the guy they sent out to hire thought that Java and NodeJS are the same thing, but hey, I didn't get fired so I call that a win.

They are a small enough company so that I could be easily let go, but I am not worried anymore. I was worried for the first few hours, like some manager would realize what happened and come over to tell me that a mistake had been made. But no, the higher ups were all too frantic to pay any attention to me whatsoever after the beginning meeting.

Thanks lol. And I guess the show Silicon Valley is most realistic than I thought. This reminds me of the episode where they are about to give their first presentation and they are talking to the guy at another startup and pretending like everything is all fantastic but in reality it's all falling apart and barely working and people are frantically trying to duct tape things together (except with code).

Funny you mention that, the reason they were so frantically in need of someone was because the guy I was replacing disappeared suddenly. I wonder why? :P

They gave me some chat logs of him talking to another one of the programmers about what they needed to do, he definitely knew more about this than I did lol

I started an new job today as well at a hospital in facilities management as a operations engineer. First day on the job the chiller fucked up and the hospital lost a/c for 25% of the hospital. Got to make an extra $200 from the overtime on day 1 :)
